Boyah Forums

July 2011 has been the most active month we've had in a full year and nine months.  Year-over-year, 2011's activity thus far has been an enormous step up from 2010's. wrench;

For comparison:

7 April 2010 - 21 August 2010: 30,668 posts
7 April 2011 - 21 August 2011: 57,422 posts

(of course in april 2010 we were recovering from massive data loss/downtime (which is why january 1 - april 6 have been omitted))

That's slightly over 87% growth.  There may still be hope for us yet. scarecrowdood;

however this month has been slightly lacking compared to last:

1 July 2011 - 21 July 2011: 11,508 posts
1 August 2011 - 21 August 2011: 10,963 posts

that's about a 5% drop, which isn't bad, but i'd much rather have percentages increasing

And there's still time to change that: in order to at least match (and hopefully surpass) last month's activity (which, again, was our highest in nearly two years), we need to average about 528+ posts per day starting now.  Does Boyah care to make this month even more active than the last? hocuspocus;

[spoiler]i'm (perhaps unrealistically) hoping we can eventually get to the point at which we can average 1000+ posts/day like we did in boyah's earliest years, and this overall growth is only a good sign giggle;[/spoiler]

I tried inviting my friend who'd fit right in but he wasn't interested in another online community

I don't think I posted that much this month.

I'll change that because school is starting, and I want to avoid that shit. goowan

I think my quota is the highest it's been in months  happydood;

Personally, I would desperately try to avoid having a person I know in person join Boyah -- and it almost happened once. smithicide;

but that's because i'm unnaturally private

But if anyone else cares to invite people they know in person, please go ahead. n_u

Hmmm...  Maybe I'll make it my goal to recruit an irl friend before the year is over.  giggle;

Every friend I try to make join Boyah either looks at it for like 5 minutes and is like "eh, cool but no" or joins and posts like 5 times and leaves.

It may have been a bit indirect, but I think I may have been a bit of a factor. I honestly can't remember. n_u

I could never have a real person on here... you guys are my interactive journal, I can't say things as openly with a person irl

nah, I think I was just always aware of its existence and then when he became a crazy whenever that was we used to all go on boyah to see somewhat of what he was up to because he stopped being our friend and then one day I was bored so I joined.

At least I think that's what happened?

NO ONE IS FUCKING POSTING

The top 6 posters (which debatably aren't really the same 6 posters you were talking about but w/e roll w/ it) make up for almost 4% of the total number of posts.

i make up zero per cent of the activity

The "top 6 posters" guess was actually pretty accurate, because the seven members with quotas currently at or closest to 100% have made up nearly 53% of this month's total posts thus far. n_u

>25%

we'd need just over 500 posts on average for the rest of the days this month to beat last month's posts

beating last month's threads will be much more plausible

500 posts a day is perfectly plausible too, but it would help a lot if certain users would post more...users who DO contribute to the activity a lot when they actually, you know, feel like it

i'm talking about users like ypr, jmv, etc. users who do still regularly post BUT NOT ENOUGH GOD DAMN IT

Zidone actually has to do shit now, that gets in the way of glorious postmaking. saddood;
